Tank Town

These colorfully painted water tanks sit just outside Dripping Springs, Texas, west of Austin. I noticed it a couple years ago along U.S. 290 while returning from San Antonio. When I pulled over to take a picture, I was amused by the sign over the elevated tank, which proudly proclaims, "Tank Town."

I began painting in 1999. Since college, I have worked as an art director in the advertising industry, in New York and now in my hometown of Austin, Texas. In the recent past I have devoted more time to developing as a fine artist, most recently in a representational, impressionistic style. The paintings on this blog are for sale unless otherwise marked. The prices shown are without framing. You may contact me at svparker@austin.rr.com .
